Not Much to Say...

Well actually I do...I'm so ready to be done school!!!!! Two more weeks left of "in class" school left...after May 2nd...no more books, handouts, group assignments...nothing!!! Just eight weeks of clinical three days a week!! I'm so much looking forward to just going to clinical, pretending that I'm actually working (I say pretending because its only pretend if you're not getting paid!) for eight hours a day and then coming home and not having anything thing to think about, not stressing about exams, assignments...sitting on my butt for six hours a day at school. The hard part is getting through these next two weeks!!!

Almost everyone in my class is starting to drive me nutts in one way or another...I'm so sick of being in a room with a bunch of bitchy women, me included! (I know...you're mouths are all open and in shock of me being bitchy...haha!) Everyone in the class is so stressed...some more than others...some are "working it" more than others as well, which I really can't stand and I really think is unfair. Some people always seem to have a "crisis" when it comes to crunch time...so us others have to pick up their slack...or so it seems. I could go on and on...but I won't!

I am just mentally drained. I never though it could get this bad...but it has. My brain is so full of stuff...I don't think there's anymore room for one more ounce of information to enter and stay in there!! I have three assignments due, two this week which are group projects, another next week. Three final exams to study for, a "working" resume to get ready for friday and to practice and study for my last "skills assessment" exam next week! I can't figure out if I'm coming or going!! So if I happen to talk to some of you...please excuse my lack of whatever I may be lacking...its not you...its me!! I just can't wait until May 2nd...once the morning is over I will breath a sigh of relief!!

Well thats about it...I just had to do a bit of whining...I could do alot more, trust me, but I don't want to make your ears bleed!!

Some exciting news!!

Well its happened...no...not that, or that...or even that! Its better than all of those combined!!! My baby boy...who's not a baby...but I can still call him that if my mom can still call me her baby girl!! On wednesday night he accepted Jesus into his heart!!! Woo hoo!!! He is so proud of himself and so happy about it! We were reading a bible story and started talking about having Jesus live in our hearts and I asked him if he had asked Jesus to come into his heart and he said yes...I asked when did he do that...he said "yesterday?"....haha. So we prayed and he asked Jesus to come and live in his heart to forgive all his sins!! Just had to share!

"Mom...my leg armpit is sore!"
"Your what?"
"My leg armpit!"
"Where exactly is your leg armpit?"
"Right here!"
"Ha ha...that is your inner thigh...you silly...but that was a good try at figuring out what to call it."

A conversation with my five year old son the other day after his cords had rubbed his "leg armpits" a little raw.

I AM ALIVE!!!

Wow...its been a while. I am alive and am living on planet earth...even though some days I feel like a total space cadet!! I will post something interesting (I hope) soon! I hope you're all well!

An update...can you believe it???

Well things are chuggin along in my world. Nothing major really. Well I guess one major thing is that I got to go to Vancouver for the weekend 2.5weeks ago with a friend. I basically shopped till I dropped. We flew down...hadn't been on an airplane since I was 10!!! I also hadn't been to Van City since Expo 86!!! So it was a well deserved mini getaway for me. It was the first time ever that I have gone somewhere overnight without ANY of my family...it was great (no offense to my husband or kids though) I can't wait to do it again!!! While I was there I got to see U2 Live!!!! Yes I did....on the Imax of course!! It was so good!!

Schools going well. Two more days and then I have spring break...woo hoo! I started my clinical last week, so every thursday and friday I go to the local seniors home and practice my "skills". I was so nervous last week...especially since I got put in the alzheimer/dementia ward right off the bat...but it was good...and dare I say fun?!?! I'm back in there tomorrow, so it should be another interesting day...and a day with me repeating myself over and over...but thats ok...its all part of the job.

Not sure what else to say. Feeling really emotional today...just took the dog for a walk and just wanted to cry...but I couldn't. Not feeling that hot physically either...achy, have a bit of a cold, tired...I know that I need to exercise more...I KNOW that that makes me feel better. Its just so hard somedays to get yourself motivated after being in school all day...but I know that its so worth doing!!! For my mind, body and soul...its worth it!!! So hopefully I can do alot more walking once spring break comes around and get myself into some sort of routine.

We're heading out to Alta. for a few days of spring break...we're going to J's parents place to see everyone. We haven't seen some of them since the christmas before last!! I have a new niece and nephew that I haven't met yet...so that will be extra special. It won't be a long trip...but its a much needed trip as J's brother and his wife and family are going to Indonesia on permanent missions in June, so we need to see them before they go...as it'll be a couple of years before we see them again! Sad hey? So thats why we're going out there...to see them especially.

Well I better go gather my things and my thoughts for my day in clinical tomorrow. I have to be there at 6:45am...yuck!!! Oh well...tis life!

I hope everyone out there who still manages to read this is doing well...spring is slowly springing on us...thank goodness!!!
